Specifics of Development of Organic Agriculture in New Conditions

Abstract

Relevance. Organic agriculture is a dynamically developing area of the global agro-industrial complex. The global problems of the climate plan and the depletion of natural resources throughout the planet dictate the need to revise the technologies used in food production. Excessive intensification of agricultural production due to mineralization and fertilization of soils, hormonal stimulation of the growth of animals and plants has led to a deterioration in the quality of water, soil, air and, in general, the health of the population. Therefore, the problem of reducing the anthropogenic impact on the environment is the main trend in the implementation of the principles of organic production.The purpose of this study is aimed at assessing the potential of organic agricultural production on the example of the leading countries and the problems associated with the development of this area in Russia.Objectives: to assess the volume of the world organic market and the dynamics of its development over 10 years; to consider the latest changes in the organization of Russian organic production after the entry into force of the N-208 Federal Law; to analyze the areas of organic agriculture by region and to identify countries leaders of organic production; refer to the experience of state support of the leading countries in organic production; assess the potential of Russian organic production; determine the future direction for the implementation of organic principles.Methodology. In the work, methods of scientific knowledge of a theoretical and methodological nature were used, graphs were used to illustrate the statistical data, and the method of generalization and synthesis was used to formulate conclusions.Results. Recommendations for the strategic development of the Russian market of organic production were developed within the framework of the current EAEU agreement.Conclusions. Conclusions are drawn about the expansion of state tools for stimulating the development of organic agricultural production in the context of changing world economic relations and integrations.
